This is a division, of application Ser. No. 524,948 filed Nov. 18, 1974.

This invention relates to nitrogen-containing compounds and more particularly to ammonioamidates containing two or more oxyformamidate or sulphonamidate groups.

According to the invention there are provided ammonio amidates of the formula ##STR2## WHEREIN A is a linking group to which the groups X are attached at alkyl, cycloalkyl or aryl carbon atoms, X is a group of the formula --O--CO-- or --SO2 --, n is an integer of value at least 2, and R1, R2 and R3, which may be the same or different, are each an optionally substituted alkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl or aralkyl group or R1 and R2 together with the nitrogen atom joining them form a heterocyclic ring or R1, R2 and R3 together with the nitrogen atom joining them form one or two heterocyclic rings.

As linking groups represented by A there may be mentioned alkylene groups such as ethylene, 1,2- and 1,3-propylene, tetramethylene, hexamethylene, decamethylene, and dodecamethylene, cycloalkylene such as 1,4-cyclohexylene, arylene such as m- and p-phenylene, groups derived from combinations of the foregoing groups such as methylene-bis-4-phenyl-, 2,2-propylene-bis-4-phenyl-, m- and p-xylylene, groups derived from one or more of the foregoing groups linked by heteroatoms or groups containing hetero atoms, such as 1,4-phenylene-bis-oxyethyl-, from polyalkylene oxides such as polyethylene oxides, condensates of alkylene oxides with glycols and other compounds containing two or more hydroxyl groups such as glycerol, 1,4-phenylene-bis-carbonyloxyethyl-, unsaturated polyvalent grouping such as may be derived from pentaerythritol dialkyl ether, and polymeric chains to which the groups X are attached directly or through pendant groups, as for example in addition polymers and copolymers of esters of acrylic or methacrylic acids in which the group X is attached to the alkyl esterifying group.

As optionally substituted groups which may be represented by R1, R2 or R3 there may be mentioned alkyl groups preferably containing from 1 to 4 carbon atoms such as ethyl, n and isopropyl, n-butyl, and especially methyl, but also n-octyl, n-decyl, n-dodecyl and n-octadecyl, cycloalkyl groups such as cyclohexyl, alkenyl groups such as allyl, aralkyl groups such as benzyl and β-phenylethyl, and substituted derivatives of these such as β-hydroxyethyl, β-hydroxypropyl, β-methoxyethyl, β-cyanoethyl, β, γ-dihydroxypropyl and β-hydroxyoctyl. Any one of the groups R1, R2 or R3 may be joined to the same group in a second ammonioamidate residue to form an optionally substituted hydrocarbyl linking group such as an alkylene group. The value of n is preferably 2.

As heterocyclic rings which may be represented by R1 and R2 and the nitrogen atom there may be mentioned morpholino, piperidino, pyrrolidino, piperazino and hexamethylene imine, and as heterocyclic rings which may be represented by R1, R2, R3 and the nitrogen atom there may be mentioned pyridinium, picolinium, quinolinium, dipyridylium, 1,4-bis-azonia-bicyclo[2,2,2]-octane, quinuclidinium and substituted derivatives of these such as carboxypyridinium groups.

As specific examples of ammonioamidates of the invention there are mentioned N,N'-bis(trimethylammonio)decamethylenebis-(oxyformamidate), N, N'-di(1-pyridinio)propylene-2,2-bis-(4-phenoxyformamidate), N, N'-di-(1-pyridinio)methylenebis-(4-phenylsulphonamidate), N, N'-bis-(trimethylammonio)oxybis-(4-phenylsulphonamidate) and N, N'-bis-(trimethylammonio)oxybis-(4-phenylsulphonamidate) and N,N' -bis-(4-methyl-4-morpholinio)hexamethylenebis(oxyformamidate).

According to the invention there is also provided a process for the manufacture of ammonioamidates of the invention which comprises reacting a hydrazide of the formula ##STR3## wherein A, X, R1, R2, R3 and n have the meanings given hereinbefore and M is an anion, with a basic compound.

As basic compounds there may be mentioned for example alkalis such as alkali metal hydroxides, e.g. sodium and potassium hydroxides, alkali metal carbonates such as sodium and potassium carbonates, alkali metal bicarbonates and anion exchange resins in the hydroxide form.

The process of the invention is conveniently carried out by stirring the hydrazide and basic compound, preferably used in excess of up to 100%, in a solvent such as a lower alcohol, e.g. ethanol. Reaction temperatures between room temperatures and 100° C may be used, the preferred temperature in each case depending upon the circumstances, such as the basic compound being used. The ammonioamidate may usually be isolated by removal of inorganic materials, for example by precipitation with ethyl ether, and evaporation preferably under reduced pressure.

The hydrazides used in the process of the invention may be prepared from the corresponding compounds of the formula A (X-halogen)n, the halogen being preferably chlorine, by reaction with a hydrazine of the formula NH2 --NR1 R2 to give a hydrazide derivative of the formula A (X-NH-NR1 R2)n followed by quaternisation with an alkylating agent of the formula R3 M wherein M is an anion forming group, such as chlorine, bromine or iodine p-toluenesulphonate, or methosulphate. The method cannot be used when R1, R2 and R3 together with the nitrogen atom form one or two heterocyclic rings.

Alternatively the hydrazide may be obtained by reaction of the compound of the formula A (X-halogen)n with a quaternary hydrazine of the formula [NH2 - NHR1 R2 R3 ]x Mx- wherein M is an anion forming group of functionality x, with a basic compound. This reaction and the conversion of the hydrazide into an ammonioamidate may be carried out in one state, and this represents a further feature of the invention. This method is suitable for the preparation of any of the ammonioamidates of the invention.

An alternative process, suitable for the manufacture of ammonioamidates of the invention wherein R3 is a β-hydroxyalkyl group, comprises reacting the hydrazine derivative of the formula A (X-NH-NR1 R2)n with an epoxide such as ethylene or propylene oxide. The process may be carried out in a solvent such as tert.-butanol at a temperature preferably between 20° C and 150°C

Alternatively the epoxide may be first reacted with a hydrazine of the formula H2 N --NR1 R2 either in the absence of solvent or in an aprotic polar solvent, such as ethylene glycol dimethyl ether and the reaction product treated with a compound of formula A (X-halogen)n, the ammonioamidates wherein R3 is a β-hydroxyalkyl group being obtained upon treatment with basic compounds in the manner described above.

The hydrazides used in the process of the invention may also be prepared by alkylation of hydrazines of the formula A (X-NH-NH2)n or A (X-NH-NHR1)n with alkylating agents such as R2 M. Such methods are only suitable for the preparation of ammonioamidates wherein R1, R2 and R3 are the same or R2 and R3 are the same respectively.

The ammonioamidates of the invention wherein A is a chain of an addition polymer may also be obtained from the polymerisable unsaturated ammonioamidates described in our copending application Ser. No. 55660/73 by polymerisation or by copoylmerisation with other polymerisable unsaturated compounds, and this represents a further feature of the invention.

Suitable polymerisable ammonioamidates are for example N-trimethylammonio-β-acryloyloxyethoxyformamidate, N-trimethylammonio-β-methacryloyloxyethoxyformamidate, N-trimethylammonio-β-methacryloyloxypropoxyformamidate and N-(4-methyl-4-morpholinio)-β-acryloyloxyethoxyformamidate.

Suitable copolymerisable unsaturated compounds are butyl acrylate, methoxypolyethyleneoxy acrylate, methyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate, β-dialkylaminoethyl acrylates, acrylamides, and vinyl pyrrolidone.

The polymerisation or copolymerisation may for example be carried out in a solvent such as carbon tetrachloride, benzene, toluene or ethylene dichloride using a polymerisation catalyst such as α-α'-azodiisobutyronitrile, or in aqueous medium using a catalyst system such as potassium persulphate and potassium metabisulphite in presence of a surfactant such as sodium dodecylbenzenesulphonate.

The amonioamidates of the invention are solid compounds, soluble in water except in those cases wherein the group A is devoid of water solubilising groups and constitutes a major part of the molecule of the ammonioamidate.

The ammonioamidates of the invention may be used as cross-linking agents for polymers, as chain extending agents for e.g. polyepoxides and other polyfunctional compounds, as bonding agents and adhesives for use with polymers or other materials, and as coating agents. As polymers which may be cross-linded there may be mentioned natural rubber, synthetic rubbers such as styrenebutadiene, acrylonitrile-butadiene, ethylene-propylene rubbers, stereo-regular polyisoprene, high or low density polyethylene, polypropylene, nylons, polyurethanes etc. Any of the above polymers for example styrene-butadiene rubber may be bonded to the same polymer, or a different polymer as for example stereo-regular polyisoprene, or to other materials such as polyethylene terephthalate, nylon-6, nylon-6,6, rayon and metal substrates such as copper, brass and steel by means of the ammonioamidates of the invention.

The ammonioamidates may be incorporated into the polymer by for example blending with the polymer in any conventional manner, such as on a two-roll mill, this type of procedure being especially suitable when the ammonioamidate is to be used as a cross-linking agent and must be present throughout the bulk of the polymer. The polymer is thereafter shaped, for example in a mould, and heated to a temperature above 50° C, and preferably between 100° and 250° C, to bring about cross-linking. The cross-linking may also be brought about by exposure to ultra-violet light, but usually this will only bring about reaction at the surface exposed to the light.

For use as a bonding agent or adhesive, in which cases application of the ammonioamidate only at the surfaces of the polymer is usually necessary, it is generally more convenient and economical to treat the polymer in shaped form, e.g. in filament, yarn, fabric, sheet or massive form, with a solution of the ammonioamidate in, for example, water, and then heat the treated polymer to drive off the water or solvent, bring the surfaces to be bonded, e.g. polyester cord and rubber, into contact, and then heat more strongly to effect bonding. An auxiliary bonding agent such as an epoxy resin and resorcinol/formaldehyde reaction product may also be present to aid adhesion. Ammonioamidates where A is an unsaturated polyvalent grouping are particularly useful for polyester to rubber bonding.

A similar procedure may be adopted to provide surfaces with coatings except that in this case contacting of the surfaces is omitted. Exposure to ultra-violet light may in these cases be used satisfactorily as an alternative to heating.

The ammonioamidates of the invention may also be used for any of the purposes for which the monofunctional ammonioamidates of our copending application No. 55660/73 are used, the group A being selected to suit the proposed application. For example coatings may be applied which will confer water-repellency (A contains long chain alkyl or fluoroalkyl groups or silicone polymer residues) or antistatic and antisoil properties (A contains polyalkylene oxide groups), or the polymer may be provided with a coloured coating (A contains a dyestuff residue), a protective coating against oxidation (A contains arylamine or phenolic residues) or coatings protective against fungal or bacterial attack (A contains bacterostatic or fungistatic groups).

The ammonioamidates in which A contains long chain alkyl groups may also have surfactant properties, and the ammonioamidates in general are accelerators for the sulphur vulcanisation of rubber, and catalysts for the formation of polyurethanes from polyisocyanates and polyhydroxylic compounds and other base-catalysed reactions.

The uses of the ammonioamidates as listed hereinbefore provide further features of the invention.
